Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas
Credit Card Debt
My husband just passed away without a will. He had amassed a very large Credit Card debt with cards in his name only. We have only been married a short time. What am I responsible for?

Re: Credit Card Debt
Your deceased husband's estate is responsible for payment of the debts if there ia probate of a will for any property or assets that may be distributed to heirs. You are not personally responsible and don't let any of those debt collectors tell you that you are.
